Guy Hall, is a Global Technologist with 29 years of R&D and Leadership for Hewlett Packard in countries such as Germany, Canada, Slovenia, Russia, India, China, Costa Rica, Singapore, Hungary, England, and France. He became interested in Electric Vehicles (EVs) in 2010 as a solution to our environmental,  economic and security challenges.  His drive expanded the Sacramento Electric Auto Association membership 20 fold, and as its President, established SacEV as a 600 member regional organization with a talented board for EV knowledge, events and activities.  He is the Board Secretary of the national Electric Auto Association and a Director on the Sacramento Clean Cities Coalition. Recently, Hall became the first driver to have navigated an EV from the lower 48 through Canada to Fairbanks in his Tesla Tijuana To Tundra Tour (T5), while promoting electric transportation with utilities, government agencies and news media in route. The Hall family currently owns two Nissan LEAFs, a Chevy Volt, and Tesla Model X.
